    I get those type of things from just one of my friends on FB. I usually just ignore them. They are silly nonsense.

    I do like FB to keep up with family members, see pics of family that are out of town, etc.

    I have two nieces that live out of my area. Both of them have small children and they post the cutest pics. And then of course there is our PT group there that I enjoy.

    Also, there is a Tuxedo Cat fan group on FB that is clever.

    It's not all bad.

    I just blow those off, along with all the other "post this on your status" stuff. I have lots of cat-related threads going (shocking!) but tons of well-thought-out, polite political debates too, along with the usual grandniece, etc. piccies.

    Is that why I got a text from my mom yesterday asking how to make a heart on facebook? Oh my gosh, that's hysterical I was doin' a 1 mile sprint at the gym when I got that text and I was laughing like a fool to myself on the treadmill!

    Thankfully I have not gotten any of those. I'm not on FB other than to check in on people and things, and don't play any of the "games" so maybe folks just know better than to send me those?

    No games for me, or those silly 'secrets'. I delete all game requests and ignore all of those 'secrets'.
    I'm there to keep in touch with people.

    Wait - not for the silly thing under discussion, but how DO you make a heart on FB? I never knew how!

    Regardless, I like FB and I confess, I do play one game. I do ignore a lot of stuff that comes through, though. I find it really useful for invitations, too! No more mailing!

    Yeah, I've played along with a few of these. However, I've not received the heart one. NO, that's ok....I don't need it.
    I hardly stay on FB long these days. I just go on check updates and then I'm off. I use to play some games and such, but I've become bored with them. One of these days I'll probably quit facebook just like I did myspace. But I really like being able to keep in touch with so many people all in one place.

    Oh, and I don't know how to make a heart on there either.
    Our goal in life should be - to be as good a person as our dog thinks we are.

    Thank you for the siggy, Michelle!

    it just makes no sense to raise awareness of something by not talking about it. They rationalize it by saying "it's just a simple heart and takes only a second to show your support". I'm like everybody is posting their comments left and right, typing like over-caffeinated spider monkeys, and now that they've actually got something to say that might be important they're too lazy to type it all out? LOL
